Style and substance

You take pride in your car, and you want your new car stereo to look good in the dash. Sony's CDX-GT575UP CD receiver offers sharp styling and user-friendly controls, and you can choose from over 35,000 color choices for the display and button illumination to create the right look for your vehicle. And this receiver has the sonic punch to match its good looks.

Crank it up and enjoy the ride

Sony built the CDX-GT575UP around the Digital Reality amp, a unique design delivers surprising power combined with an accurate, deep soundstage so music sounds more natural inside your vehicle. If you're a tweaker, Sony includes a 7-band equalizer, digital time correction for sharp and precise stereo imaging, and DM+, which improves the sound of your compressed music. You can also activate the Rear Bass Enhancer which sends only low frequencies to your rear speakers, improving your bass and pulling the soundstage forward.

Subwoofer Direct Connection lets you combine the output of the receiver's two rear channels to drive a small subwoofer. That's great way to add some extra bass kick to your ride, perfect for small compacts or truck cabs, where space for an amp may be limited.

Your music on tap

The CDX-GT575UP comes equipped with front-panel auxiliary and USB inputs, along with a CD player that features MP3 and WMA playback. You can also plug in your iPod® or iPhone® to the USB port and browse your playlists from the receiver. Nifty search tools like Quick Browzer and ZAPPIN let you scan and find music quickly and easily. Plug in your iPhone, and you'll be able to access your Pandora® Internet radio stations and rate songs with the receiver's controls. You can also add SiriusXM's compact tuner, and experience the impressive programming and coast-to-coast reception that makes satellite radio so popular.

Want to keep your steering wheel controls?

In most cars, you'll need an adapter to retain those controls with this car stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and radio, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls. You'll see the adapters that work with your vehicle when you add this receiver to your cart.

iPod/smartphone note: If you're going to use your iPod or smartphone with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for compatibility information.

And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car.

Audio Section

CEA2006 Compliant Amplifier: The power specifications for
the Sony CDX-GT575UP are compliant with the CEA2006 Mobile Amplifier Power
Testing and Measurement standards from the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA).
These standards were developed as a way to equitably compare power specs from
model to model and between manufacturers. The power output specs for the
CDX-GT575UP are as follows:

2V/4Ch Preamp Outputs: The CDX-GT575UP contains two pairs of
2-volt RCA preamp outputs. A front pair and another pair that can be
set for the rear channels or for subwoofer operation.

Subwoofer Controls: When the unit's subwoofer output is activated, the
preamp output becomes non-fading and a low pass filter is activated with a selectable
cut-off frequency of 50Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, or
Off. You can also adjust the slope (1/2/3) of the low-pass crossover. You can adjust
the subwoofer preamp output's volume level independently from the head unit's
volume control from -10 to +10 in 1dB increments. In addition, you can select
the phase of the subwoofer output from Normal or Reverse.

Subwoofer Direct Connection: You can connect a subwoofer to this head
unit without the need of a separate power amplifier. Simply connect a single
subwoofer (4-8 ohm) directly to head unit's left or right rear speaker leads
(but not both). Same subwoofer controls apply.

High-Pass Filter: The front & rear speaker outputs offer a
selectable high-pass crossover frequency of 50Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, or
Off. You can also adjust the slope (1/2/3) of the high-pass crossover.

Listening Position: This unit can change the
localization of sound by delaying the sound output from each speaker to suit
your position, and simulate a natural sound field with the feeling of being
in the center of it wherever you sit in the car. You can choose from Front
Right, Front Left, Front Center, or Off. You can also set the subwoofer distance of the subwoofer
to Near, Normal, or Far

RBE (Rear Bass Enhancer): RBE enhances the bass sound
by applying the low-pass filter setting to the rear speakers. This function
allows the rear speakers to work as a subwoofer even if there is no
subwoofer connected.

Beep Tone: The in-dash head unit provides an audible beep to
confirm button operation. This function can be turned On or Off.

Display Features

Detachable Face: The CDX-GT575UP features a detachable face
for theft prevention. A face-fixing screw is supplied for making the face
non-detachable, if desired. No face case is included with this unit. An
optional soft face case (142DFC1X,
sold separately) can be purchased for this unit.

Caution Alarm: If you turn the ignition switch to the Off
position without detaching the front-panel, the caution alarm will sound for a
few seconds. The alarm will only sound if the built-in amplifier is used.

Day/Night Color Mode: You can register a
customize color for the unit's display and buttons for day & night time
driving.

Sound Synchronization: The color changes according to
synchronization of playing music. When you select a preset pattern sound
synchronization becomes effective.

White Menu: You can display the menu more
clearly (White text) without concern for the unit's other color settings.

Start White: When you power-on the head unit, the color
of the unit's display and buttons turn white and then the color changes to
your chosen customize color. You can enjoy this effect whenever the source
is turned on.

Motion Display: This feature
shows moving patterns and a spectrum analyzer on the display when turned on.

Auto Scroll: This feature
allows long displayed items to scroll automatically across the display when the
track is changed on a disc.

Display Illumination/Clock Display: Pressing the Source/Off
button once will switch sources. Pressing and holding the Source/Off button for
one second will turn off audio output, but the clock display and button
illumination remain on. To turn the unit off completely, you must press and hold
the Source/Off button for two seconds.

Dimmer: To change the brightness of the display you can set
the CDX-GT575UP to one of three dimmer modes - Dimmer Auto (dims the display
automatically when you turn your vehicle's lights on), Dimmer Off (deactivates
the dimmer), and Dimmer On (display always dim).

Auto Off: When installing in a vehicle without an accessory power wire at the
radio location, you can set the unit to turn off all lighting a
set amount of time after you turn the power off. The Auto Off feature can be set to 30 seconds, 30 minutes,
60 minutes, or No.

Demo Mode: The head unit's demo mode can be turned On or Off.

Remote Control

Wireless Remote Control: The
head unit comes supplied with an IR wireless remote control (RM-X211) for easy
operation. The included wireless remote allows you to control the basic
functions of the Sony head unit while keeping your eyes on the road.

Good & Bad

Bought this head unit to replace the hideous contraption installed by the previous owner of my new-to-me Land Cruiser. Overall, it's a decent unit. Programming sucks, and the iPod functionality is marginal (no pause?) but the sound is good and installation was pretty straightforward. I tend to use the AUX input with the phone/iPod and simply use the controls on the device rather than going thru the head unit. As usual, Crutchfield's website, delivery and overall experience means I will continue to be a Crutchfield customer.

Tragically useless

Written By Mike, the Washington, DC Area on Wednesday, January 28, 2015

"Coolness Factor"

Build Quality

Ease of Use

Sound Quality

Value

Sis got this for me a year ago. Used it to connect to iphone via usb. Worked only moderately well. The programming will have it start playing your albums in alphabetical order after it runs out of things to play, which gets incredibly obnoxious hearing the same song at the end of every single one of your playlists. Playback often skips and pauses because data transfer method is unreliable. Got tired of iphone updates making my phone slower and more useless so I switched my iphone out with a galaxy s5 and switched itunes out with musicbee. Unfortunately this radio is only compatible with iPhones via USB. I tried a usb stick, that was also not supported. So now I get no music. the aux cable that came with the radio stinks too. What a wasted product for me this was. Also, didn't hold properly in my car, I had to build a better housing for it in my home workshop.

Pros:it's better than my original 1996 ford taurus audio system because at least it has aux. Colorful lights.

Cons:read my review. Not compatible with android phones, which is heavily the fault of android programmers changing data transfer protocol. All in all, a huge disappointment. Get with the times, use Bluetooth and voice recognition software like google's or Siri so you can keep your eyes on the road and not risk your life trying to deal with this old junk.

Cons:When unit said sirius/xm ready... Was hoping that was in the box, however, found that you had to purchase the xm module separate, another small issue is the clock on the unit keeps changing after I set the time. Irritating.

Beautiful Headunit

Fantastic Sound Quality and Seemingly Very Well built, The Adjustable colors turn heads everywhere I go and by far one of the Best "Bang for your Buck" Head units I've come across. Loaded with tons of Cool features although it is a little confusing to Program because of all the Features. Would recommend keeping the User Manuel so you can figure out what all the Features mean and what they do.

Pros:Great Price, Very good looking, A lot of Features and Customization available

Sony CD Player Review

This is a very nice after market CD player. I have an older vehicle and the kit that Crutchfield put together for me worked out flawlessly. The CD player itself works well with USB thumb drives and my directly with my Ipod. It has a large number of features for customization. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a feature packed unit at a very reasonable price. The only downside is there are so many features it can be cumbersome to learn at first. Not really a bad thing, I suppose...

Pros:Tons of features including color and sound customization and just about any input type that a person could possibly need and then some.

Cons:The large number of customizable features makes operating it difficult at first. It's not bad once you figure it out, but definitely don't toss the manual until you have read it and can make everything work the way you want it to.

Confusing

I didn't want to write a negative review but after the installation I still haven't been able to get it dialed in. The way the instructions are written is kind of confusing and I have read them several times including the wiring diagrams. For some reason 90% of the sound only comes from the right channel, front and rear. I think this weekend I'm going to rip it out and start over, but I don't think I'm going to be very optimistic about it.

Pros:The display and color options are pretty cool. The jury is still out on functionality.

Cons:Programming this thing is terrible. Seriously I'm not opposed to having another knob if it means adjustments will be easier.

Crutchfield response on Tuesday, October 28, 2014We forwarded this review to our Technical Support team for follow-up. Lifetime tech support comes with every Crutchfield purchase.

Sony CDX-GT575UP

Installed in my 1993 GMC-Jimmy. Easy to install. Easy to use. In-dash appearance is very nice. The sound is awesome( still using the factory speakers). Delivery was extremely quick. Crutchfield tech. support was great. Should have purchased this unit earlier.

Sony CDX-GT575UP

Installed it with the MasterSheet install instructions and when I turned it on and cranked it up, I was totally in smiles. Made my mach system in my explorer sound like trash in comparison. should have switched this out long, long ago! best sound I've heard in a vehicle in a long while

Pros:Powerful bass I didn't know the car had clarity and depth excellent, easy to set up while reading the manual

Awesome unit!!!

If you are looking for an awesome headunit that is not too flashy, this is your unit. The installation was a breeze and the head unit looks sleek once installed in my IS300. It offers many great features and functions but I was mainly getting it for the iPod integration which works great! I would recommend to anyone, especially for the price.

Simply Sony. Simply Satisfied.

First off, my car is a 1992 Bonneville, and had 1.5 din size only... so that ruled out all double din decks. So I needed a simple but "feature-enough" radio to satisfy my needs. This Sony does it. What sold me the most is it's 7 band EQ. And yes, I must have my audio equalized in life, whether it's home or car. The graphic equalizer on the Sony is better than all those "parametric" ones found in JVCs and Kenwoods and Pioneers. And sometimes only the higher-end expensive decks have 5 or 10 band graphic EQs, and so forth. The second thing that sold me was the color customization. Again, most other decks that are high end and expensive only have the color customization. Way to go Sony! This was the cheapest Radio (for $89) to come with color customization. My Bonneville's interior lights up orangey red... and the Sony's custom colors totally matched it.

I am running 6" Rockford Fosgate component speakers on front doors and rear deck (straight off radio power); and I'm running two 10" MTX subs in the trunk (separate amp). The system sounds amazing. The Sony has enough audio adjustments to perfectly tune the speakers and the subs. All my friends compliment on the clean, tight, "studio" sounding performance of my Sony and all components.

The Sony CDX-GT575UP is not a fancy touch screen, GPS, dvd player kind of radio. But IT IS a perfect performer, and perfect solution, for sweet amazing listening of music...

Sony CDX-GT575UP

Overall I'm satisfied with this stereo. It was easy to install once I purchased the adapter wiring harness. It was basically "plug and play". It just wasn't clear to me that I had to buy a wiring harness when I originally bought the stereo due to my stock JBl system already in my truck. It's just like any new device, you have to spend some time with it and you will get used to using it. It looks and sounds great in my truck!

Pros:Easy to install, looks cool, remote control

Cons:Directions were not very good for installation, pandora function controlled through the stereo

Sony CDX-GT575UP

This radio was easy to install and sounds great in my 2002 Chevy Trailblazer. The sound quality is much better than I expeced and the equalizer has many settings to either use a set setting or custom settings. It seems a bit confusing to set up at first but then after a quick learning curve, it is easy.

Pros:Sounds great, price and easy to install

Cons:Although it is Sirius/XM ready, you still have to buy a receiver to get the Sirius/XM stations which means I would have to remove it and install it again. Not willing to do that.

Great radio

I liked this stereo very well. I was concerned that it might be hard for me to remember how to use the various features/settings but I picked it up well and it was fairly easy to grasp. I like how you can customize the color display to match your car as well.

My wife loves it - get one!

Very nice stereo. This is the second Sony car stereo I've bought through Crutchfield. You will need the manual to get it set up properly. I used this one to replace a factory original stereo (that had all but died) in my wife's Chrysler Town and Country. The sound is great and my wife loves it.

Pros:Well made. Nice display. USB port on the front is really handy.

Cons:For older eyes, the print on the front is hard to read easily and without the manual, you probably won't make full use of all of its features.

Little disappointed

Alright I'm into big bass and low frequencies this radio did kick with my stock system but the second I put my two Rockford Fosgate P2's in the mix it would clip and shut off, I managed to fix a way around it in the EQ but this was only a temporary fix because now I'm have the clipping problem more often. So all in all nice deck of stock speakers not for a subwoofer set up.

Great sound & performance

been years since I have replaced a factory stereo and I was amazed at how much better the technology has become and for much less the cost. String receiver and both USB and AUX front inputs make hooking up any iPod or iPhone a cinch. controlling your mobile device from the display is a little tricky at first but once you figure out how to o it its not that hard. Overall very please with the quality, sound, and most of all cost of this stereo. And as always Crutchfield Tech Support was very helpful answering the one stupid question I always have.

Sony CDX-GT575UP

Easy to install, fits my car. Simple controls. Presets for the sound and equalizer are okay but it is one setting for all modes. Have to keep changing the sound for CD, Tuner,USB. Overall I like this unit a lot

Great value

Searched for brand name receiver with auxillary and USB port to access my music on iPod, flash drive, and MP3 . All requirements met with super value extra features. Can tune unit to my exact preferences. Great sound, easy installation.
